Neiler asked who people would have out of Redknapp and Moyes. Just to compare stable old David Moyes to Harry Redknapp.
Harry Redknapp joined Spurs just before November 2008 and there were serious relegation fears. He was given the green light to spend more than £30m on the likes of Defoe, Keane and Palacious to try and cement their Premiership survival. However since then, in his full three seasons in charge, he has finished 4th twice.
In his three subsequent and only full seasons in charge - he has actually spent MINUS £13m net on transfers. Last season his only major signing was Scott Parker, £5m, Adeybayor on loan, Friedel on a free. He brought in nearly £30m selling the likes of Crouch, Pavluychenko, Palacious and Keane. Yet he still finished 4th.
The season prior, 2010-11, he only spent around £13m while bringing in £6m through sales. Redknapp has done a fantastic job at Spurs, yet still gets fired.
Imagine what he could do at Everton, with less pressure. He'd move players out of the club for sure, a lot more than Moyes has, but would be a lot more creative and less boring than Moyes. I do not box Redknapp into a category, I think he could cope with the 'no money' at Everton. I'd expect Cup Finals, CL place chases, he'd have Barkley coming through, Duffy, maybe not be so harsh on some youngsters like Baxter (who is still only 20!) who have shown promise.
If Moyes does go to Spurs then I'd love to swap him for Redknapp. He might get us much more media exposure, we'd be seen as a big club rather than a small club, and players want to play for him. He could also wipe out some of the club's debt with his dealings and still maintain our progress.
I know I'm dreaming because hardly anyone who wants Moyes out would want Redknapp in.
